It occurs to me they could have cut down on the number of heads- which takes forever to load- if they didn't do the "missing parts" ones. I'm not sure what that's meant to do and I prefer to have a head that'll work with whatever hair I put on it.

It appears to be an easy way to port old FPR/Z/D heads to World without having to redo them all from scratch. I'm actually quite happy they're all in, myself.

Man, what am I missing with corner grapples? Every time I try to move in to do one in this tutorial the other guy comes out of the corner as soon as I get in range and reverses me.

Turns out that yes, I was missing something. I was expecting the initial corner lockup to look different than the normal lockup animation. :shobon:

Potential bugfix: play more than one song in the menus. I know they don't have a lot, and I suppose I could always mute it but that sounds like work.

The biggest change I want is to be able to change the match speed in tournaments and leagues before the matches instead of only at the start when you set it up.

I'm enjoying FPW, working through the missions and loving the things I've downloaded from the workshop. Question though, how the hell am I supposed to do the mission where I win with an inside to outside the ring move? I don't know how to reliably throw dudes out of the ring and my timing on running moves (off the whip or after whipping guys into the corner) is total poo poo.

That one took me a while too. You're supposed to grip with [Directional Grapple] (RB by default on a gamepad) and I believe then it's [Run] + RB to throw them over. The timing on the running moves is also- well ya gotta practice. Took me forever. But once you hit that move, you can then drag them back in the ring and attack and pin them normally. They're not expecting you to win on that move specifically.

Simmed my first 16-man tourney! The winner was a 170-lb. underdog named Buck Gordon who overcame the odds and beat two giants on his way to the gold. Also had a 100% match in the first round. Now I just gotta distribute the undercard titles.

Use bodyslam (up + sml) while close to the ropes to dump them out of the ring.

And I believe I backed up into the middle of the ring to make the jump instead of bouncing off the opposing ropes but I can't remember exactly.

If you're having trouble with running dives, you can also do a springboard/slingshot move by standing next to the ropes and pressing towards therm + Big. If I remember right, that guy's move is a little long (I think he transitions to the other side of the rope and then moonsaults), so you might need to throw the guy outside, then use a Big Front Grapple move so he'll stand up dazed, run back in the ring and then start it as soon as he starts to stand so you'll have enough time to get through the animation before he recovers.

For running dives and running moves to corner, the spot where the move activates varies by move, but there's an easy way to solve that: just press and hold big early on. So, like, bounce off the far side rope, and as soon as you're running in the right direction, start holding Big. Your guy will do the move as soon as they hit the spot where the move activates (which is on the late side if it's just a tope but much earlier if you're doing a Space Flying Tiger Drop).

You can throw guys outside of the ring if you're standing near the ropes and you irish whip the guy to the near ropes. You can also use 3D + Run (usually RB + Y) to toss the guy over the top rope. You can also just do a body slam or suplex or something that will cause the guy to spill out of the ring upon landing.

Somebody at FPWArena was digging around in the files and found three additional arenas. So I guess those will be released at some time in the future. If you want to see them now, he posted pictures.

(and apparently match rating is tied to the arena and each arena's crowd has different parameters)

Cool, the game needs more than three (even if you don't spend much time looking at the arena.)

Would like a "seedy as gently caress bingo hall/VFW" option, though. For proper wrestling history.

To go ahead and save you some frustration:

That character's finisher is Front Grapple, Small+Medium. If you looked in the move list and saw the Germans listed under "F", that's "Favorite". "Signature" is the finisher, marked with S.

I know Fire Pro Returns had like a "town hall" option so that's probably in the cards somewhere down the line.

It's not a flop but not a huge success either. I don't know their team size but after the expenses that's like 2-3 (Japanese) developer's annual wage so it needs to keep selling. Fortunately it's probably getting plenty of streamer coverage which tends to boost sales nicely.

According to a recent interview with the director that's worth reading, the development team is around 10 people, which is apparently par for the course for the series. Considering that, and the whole thing where their social media guy is pulling double duty doing the English translation, I suspect it's not an enormously high-budget production. I'd be very surprised if they don't make their money back at the least.

When setting up the tournament go in to Settings and switch "COM Skip" to on.

Unfortunately you have to do this while setting up the tournament. There's no way to do it while one is in progress.

I think you are allowed to drag them back in the ring then pin after hitting the move, just don't hit anything else.

Not even that. You just have to do a dive at some point in the match, then win. It's poorly worded.
